Himalayan 450 Rally vs XPulse 200 Time Trial Hot Lap On Dirt
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- Our work-in-progress Himalayan 450 Rally bike gets put through its paces on dirt.
We also run a modified XPulse 200 Rally on the same course to see if there really is a time difference between the both.

Damn.. This Himalayan Build feels much more snappy. And obviously, the riding skills are super good.
Man this guy can ride. Would love to see a side by side comparison of the sprint, spli screen.
Kudos Abhinav for the bike, you are transforming it in the right direction
I tried making a split screen clip but then the shots were too close and wasn't a lot of fun to look at (see thumbnail). I'll shoot it another way next time and do a split screen video.
This is what a pure motorcycling channel should do, nice run 😊
1:09 101 in off road 🤯🤯🤯
Don't try this at home! ✌️
This not so off-road. The road looks just without blacktopped.
@@Naturelover061you must be kidding right
Rajan paaji forgot to mention he would like a steering stabilizer for that continuous wiggle he was working overtime to handle ...
Superb build this is coming to be and fan of paajis riding for over a decade .. Beasters for Life 👏 👍 👌
Itnay paiso itna kuch mil jaye wahi kaafi hai. Steering dampers honestly not required coz it's as long as LC4 640 adv and extra weight. It holds on nice. The reason you see soo much body use. Its coz extra weight.
Great Video. I think, probably this particular video is enough to understand how 450 is capable for dual purpose situation generally. Thank you Mr. Abhinav for this informative video.
Man got some serious skill and guts
Mad mad riding skills 💨💨
Well....as someone about to purchase a Ténéré World Raid, you have certainly made my decision more difficult. My wife wants A Himalayan 450, now I kinda want one too....
The way he rides... That's pure skill... I don't think I will be able to match that ever !! Want to see him ride other ADVs
Great Video Sir! It really shows how capable himalayan is as an all rounder. Thanks to Rajan for his POV
Wow, Wat a build , have been following you and love every bit you explore with the options, this gives us so much to think about , keep going buddy ..
Brilliant runs. Nice riding! The difference in power and tyres is very obvious.
From what I know about Rajan! He is actually a badass on these trails! Phew
Thanks Avinabh...That's called the proper use of Adventure bike
Mannn.What a rider? My adrenaline level increased. Kudos to the rider.
Those looking for specific time on the course for both the motorcycles.
The rider was able to complete the lap in 2minutes 49seconds on the New Himalayan,
and 2minutes 58 seconds on the XPulse200 Rally.
Amazing video, amazing rider!
Really looking forward to seeing more of this build!!!
A 360⁰ camera with extended stick on the rear side will be amazing, so that we can see the power slides and dust smashing also from another angle 🔥🔥
It most likely will end up smashing into a tree in the corners. Also, extremely difficult to keep it stable off road.
Previous video Abhinav said
“”this man has no Chill in life””
And now we see that guy’s No chill riding!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Rajan kamal kar dia bhai🙌🏻
The only update left with this bike is to change the front stock mud guard with the offroad one to give it a sharp and aggressive look then it is 100% complete 🔥
I may change it but it is not a priority as of now.
I would love to tell you all Rajan is 40 years old and 100+ in weight with riding gears 🤣🤣 ... This is what happens when you give a New Royal Enfield to a guy who has done 1600+ km in 24hrs on 350cc Royal Enfield 😂😂 in his 20's ❤❤ Killer Stuff again Rajan ❤❤
This is a promotional video for Himalayan. With twice the price in comparison to Xpulse, and with low mileage and high maintenance cost, on any given day, I will choose Xpulse 200 4V Pro.
Just wow ... Watching you riding on track is always Crazy 💥💥 killer Stuff ❤❤
I wasn't riding in this video.
I know man Rajan was riding
I had been waiting for this video since forever
I was really waiting for this to happen !!
Abinav waiting for the exhaust ❤pls post soon😂
Royal Enfield should make you part of their research and development team, Abhinav!
Pretty good @ladakhman pretty good you should do this more often
Aye aye captain Umang sir, but getting old for this now kind of riding 😅
What a great Bike Royal Enfield........ Killed it.... Everything about it is perfect
Old Himalayan be like : Hold my chassis because it's gonna fall after watching this
Skills🔥🔥🔥
Id wait for the xpluse 400 or ktm390 rally
Abhinav maybe use the steel braided brake lines from Himalayan 411 on this for better bite.
Problem is the speedo doesn't run then. I may still do direct lines though.
Rajan was quite literally flying on the trail on the Himalayan and the man says with a few more changes he can actually use it to full potential, Woah! That's some serious riding there. Also, you said pulling off ABS plug , the speedo wouldn't work, but wasn't it working in the video? 🤔
The chat part was shot before the final run in which we put the ABS fuse back.
very informative and very clean customisation
Hey Abhi, did u signed up for Royal enfield to build a rally edition Himalayan 😅😅??
You r doing amazing 🤩✌🏻
Aapke channel per aane ke bad Pata Chalta Hai ki Ham Abhi Tak kya miss kar rahe the...😂
Why would you need a smaller disk? To make the braking worse?
Fun overload.
what's your opinion on both bikes ....handling? stability. comfortable etc
Rajan deliberately didn't push hard enough on corners... taking weight off the rear and letting it slide would have resulted in much tighter turns and a better timing. The Himalayan looks super capable !
It wasn't time trail. Not my bike & to be kept in one piece. So yes, didn't push it around corners, also it's very restricted with extra wide tank for aggressive cornering.
Where is this trail?
Is the xpulse switch (left side ) changed , I see an hazard light switch, if yes which one ( xtreme ? , direct fit ? ) please reply to this 😅😅😅😅
I had same idea but scared to invest in it
@abhinavbhatt
Hi, you guessed it right. Its 160 switch. But I have only replaced the top cover with hazard switch from 160 (from damged one in Hero workshop garbage pile) and kept Xpulse original intenals.
Wny the himalayan's Engine light is turned ON? MIL to be correct. Any issues?
ABS fuse was pulled to completely disable it.
Looking at both the laps Xpulse seems to be faster than the Himalayan on dirt accounting for the time this guy lost in the saves and the turn where he was casually chatting
Probably not very relevant to this video, but if you got a chance to ride this setup on the roads, have the vibrations changed in terms of where they come in in the rpm range since you also installed the decat?
I don't feel the vibes. Also, on these tyres, I am usually doing 60-80 max on the road.
@@abhinavbhatt ahh makes sense. I didn’t think from the tires angle. Thanks!
can you post a pic of the dented tank
I deliberately am not doing that. I have the video of the crash from three angles and a 360 too, but I feel that would just take the focus away from the build and just give fodder to people who have nothing better to do than keep bitching on the internet.
Bhai ktm 390 spoke wheel ke saath banao video
How much of an effect have all the mods had on the infamous lowend (or lackthereof)?
Some, not a lot.
@@abhinavbhatt hmm, understandably.. I half wish RE called it something else. Too many people comparing it to the old 411 and complaining about the low end.
The way I see it,
This one isn't meant to merely chug along offroad but actually hustle.
Owners of the old 411 have the "I wanna chug along " mindset.
just imagine xpulse with a 400cc engine
Timings, Himalayan 2: 49 & Xpulse 2: 58 👍
Not much of a difference in my opinion
@@Natasha-mj4uzyou could deduct 4-5 seconds from xpulse run because of the save and talking he did making the u-turn. So xpulse isn't slow at all
Hey Abhinav. It's Sam from Australia again. Mate. I've gone cold on Royal Enfield. We haven't even seen the 450 Hima in country yet. March 17 we can go and 'look' at one in store but not test ride. We've been invited to put down a deposit on the day, but NO TEST RIDE!! Royal Enfield dealerships here are the WORST. Poor after sales service, pathetic parts management, and generally no effing idea about the bikes they sell. I'll keep my 411 until I can afford to upgrade TO A BETTER bike. But I will not be buying the new 450.
Hi Sam. I understand the frustration. A bike is as good as the sales and service that comes along with the package. Just out of curiosity, what would be your pick now, considering you'd be skipping the Himalayan.
@@abhinavbhatt I won't be doing much riding over the next 6-9 months due to an upcoming shoulder surgery. That will give me time to see how the cfmoto mt 450 is doing. Alternatively, the Touareg 660, or maybe the crf300 rally. I have time, I have a great bike to ride in the meantime, and of course extra time post surgery to save more money.
@@sambarr7826 oh, that's a bummer. All great bikes. The Aprilia is ridiculously priced in India. About 6 times the Himalayan. I wish we get the CRF and the CF Moto here. More competition means better bikes by manufacturers. Take care. Cheers
Xpulse looking good
Himalayan ka features thik hai but look hajom nhi ho rha old Himalayan thik tha
Me flipa 😍
Its not the track for xpulse. That's almost flat kind of surface. Himalayan is quite capable but real offloading in different. But i must say xpulse need bit bigger engine.
Xpulse feels too light for its own good.
KRATOSAA
Just swap out the Himalayan engine to the xpulse all done 😅
only full sends 😂
Not bad for the fat old me riding
You should do this more often
I do this everytime I ride. Just not for recording on camera & posting
Rajan ko guinea pig kyun banaya?
And didn't knew he's so bad ass.
@Rajan Singh don't hang around with Abhinav.
We are getting old and can't afford broken bones.
Bhai, usko toh rokna pada. Kamina aur tez chalana chahta tha.
Himalayan won because of speed and weight 😂
Paisa zaiya in hima
Shouldve rode the xpulse first!
Why?
I think the comparison would have been more impactful. Slow vehicle first, first one right after!
@abhinavbhatt just guessing, but felt like he lost a bit of his energy when he rode the xpulse! Also just to sort of balance out the unfair comparison between the two bikes :D
The xpulse mightve done a little better if it went first!
@@Ron.xionzre the XPulse may actually be faster. He paused for a moment while turning and he almost crashed before that. The XPulse was gaining in the corners a lot.
@@abhinavbhatthe didn't said anything about xpulse.. And also happy to share that I have same colour xpulse.. 😬😬
This himalayan seems like a bit Dakar worthy..😅😅
haha. Not at all!
@@abhinavbhatt khana khane ke baad nahi chala sakte😉
Means more grunt at lower rpms and lesser gear shifts if you put a larger rear wheel sprocket
If I am wrong correct me I am always ready to learn
Here you are a little of mark where as Himalayan 411 has a under square engine hence mor breathing more torque at lower rpms and 450 has a close to over square engine hence only high end torque and less low end grunt
Less torque at lower rpms and hence more gear shifts
And there is no comparison of him vs xpulse
But don't get offended as I am not as expert as you are sorry l have given youa down to earth review yes by increasing the teeth of the rear sprockets torque will increase and less gear shifting
But if you compare the specs of Himalayan 411 it is lot more torquier than Himalayan 450 reason bhp/cc
People who think Himalayan is proper off road bike rip
much like gay-malayan
